Dear Shaded Viewers,
Art Director Donald Schneider reunited with Nan Goldin for a lecture in Berlin. They know each other from the 80's in the East Village. They talked about those days and her work to a packed house in Berlin. Nan Goldin. Poste Restante Slide Shows/Grids is on until December 6th. "These pictures come out of relationships, not observation." Nan Goldin.
Nan's photos are as powerful now as they were thirty years ago. They oscillate between glamour and the gutter, euphoria and happiness and above all their strength is in their radical intimacy. Nan photographs people she is close to with sensitivity, capturing their identity, sexuality, desire, violence, sickness and mourning.
Total running time of the four slide shows: approx 90 minutes
Later,
Diane
